Microsoft Word 4+

Ok. So, I used to love Word because I can make stories, and do stuff at school like essays and stuff. One day while I was at my home, my computer died while I was on Word. So then I got my sisters computer and then logged in in my account then went to word. When I went to Word, I saw all my work and essays there! I continued using her computer, but then, IT DIED TOO 😡! So then, I got on my tablet (lol I keep have to switch) and got Word on the App Store. When I logged in my account, I saw my essays, and my sisters essays. It’s like our work connected in one same account. I thought it was probably because it went on my sisters computer. Then I realized that it really didn’t matter. So I went to finish my stories and essays, but it said “You don’t have permission to edit this.” But I SHOULD! That was my account. So I needed to see if my sisters account works, but mine doesn’t. I was right! Her’s worked, but mine didn’t. I couldn’t finish or edit my stuff. It’s like we switched accounts. When I tried 1 last time to get in, it said it needed my password. I put my password in, then it was loading, but then… IT KICKED ME OUT!!! 😣😡😭 please fix this. I can go also go on my computer when it’s charged, but you just need to fix that

Great app. Business and academic apps like this are sometimes harder to navigate on iPads or smart devices because you can’t see all the icons like you would on a laptop screen, and the layout is a little different, but it still does mostly everything you’d need for work or school. There are certain things that you can’t do unless you pay and upgrade to premium, like getting unlimited text colors, but that’s pretty much what you get with every app these days. The app still lets you be cheap and get away with making word documents without premium if you don’t want all the bells and whistles included, and it’s still functional, so I don’t personally mind not having premium. You can get by without it if you don’t want to spend the extra money-shoutout to all the broke college students out there and all the kids whose parents won’t let them upgrade- but if you’re willing/have the means to pay, hats off to ya. All in all, it serves its purpose and does what it’s supposed to, it’s not glitchy, and it’s pretty easy to use. I like it. So, that’s my two cents in the subject. Try it out, see what you think, and you can always delete it I guess. :)

Well I use Microsoft word at work, the mobile version is vastly inferior. If it were free, I probably couldn’t complain. But, if you want to get the capability of redlining documents and other important work-related actions, you have to purchase the subscription. This is where the trouble begins. Microsoft support is terrible. Several times a year the program won’t work and tells me I need a subscription. I’ve spent hours on the phone with Microsoft since I first purchased this program. There’s some sort of company disconnect between their accounting department and mobile services. This needs to be fixed.

Regarding the applications performance, at best it’s OK. It tends to be slow, saving a document while you were working on it is not as straightforward as it should be, and if you want to dictate, you better proofread twice. Many of the desired editing features are not available in this mobile application. Formatting is next to impossible and many many other features are not available. While I don’t think you can expect 100% duplication, iPad cost more than most PCs, have ample memory, and should be capable of handling all of the commands necessary to do a competent job of preparing a word document. And you should not have to have an external keyboard with your iPad to perform the tasks. Bottom line, The program is livable, but not particularly likable.
